Another newbie auction buy. How did I do?

Aaron, fortunately for me, it was my intention to buy this one for shooting. I figured that $500 for a shooter is a little high, but it was a matching shooter. :-) Now of course, my education is expanding and I'm thinking of having Thor spend some time on it. To me, they're all valuable.... Even if some of them are like the ugly kids.... :-P

I do have a 1938, 42 code that's in a little better shape than this one.

I paid $750 for it and I'm pretty pleased. I know it's only one rung above the 1920 Commercial, but I'm just starting.... I'll probably pick up at least one more this year. But I'm afraid I'm going to have to spend some money on that one..... :-/

Doug, when I have Thor do his thing, I'll ask him to knock his proof into it.... My thinking on that will be right along side yours. It may be the most common thype of Luger, but it's been reworked by a master. Like having Stradivarius fix your old clunker violin.... :-)
